Three of the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach former President Trump last year face tough primaries on Tuesday, competing against Trump-endorsed challengers in crowded fields.

So far, four of the 10 have opted to retire, two have overcome primary challenges to get to November and one did not. Since leaving office, Trump has wielded his power against the Republicans he thinks crossed him.

Tuesday’s races feature two lawmakers from Washington and one from Michigan and are expected to be closely watched as yet another test of Trump’s influence with GOP voters.

“House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has supported Meijer through his Majority Committee PAC, along with House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.), Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and former GOP Rep. Denver Riggleman (Va.).”

And there we have the problem. Scalise, the Left had you literally shot, and you still can’t tell friend from foe. Ugh.

Finish them!!!

Replace Kevin McCarthy (my congressman 😕) with Marjorie Taylor Greene, and replace The Turtle with Rand Paul.

We could do a lot worse than that. Unfortunately, so could your district. MTG is my representative. I would prefer Jim Jordan for Speaker, though MTG is awesome.

These people who voted to impeach Trump will have a hard time?

or

Trump no longer has any clout.

I’m curious.

If they voted to impeach him, they did ‘cross’ him.
